Answer: B) are excited by light that falls in the center of their receptive field.
Explanation:
There are two types of bipolar cells present in the retina which are differentiated on the way the centres of their receptive fields respond to light. The names of bipolar cells are ON-centre and OFF-centre.
If a light fall at the centre of the receptive field of a bipolar cell, it will experience an exciting effect on that cell, resulting in it being depolarized, it is an ON-center cell.
Hence, the correct option is B.
In an energy absorbing reaction, the energy of the products is greater than the energy of the reactants. In an energy releasing reaction, the energy of the reactants is greater than the energy of the products.
Answer:
D, Cholera and Dysentery
Explanation:
Colds travel through contact and air. Tetanus infects through metal.
Answer:
1. The difference between the normal hemoglobin protein DNA sequence and the sickle cell hemoglobin DNA sequence is a base to base shift, in this case adenine (GAG) to thymine (GTG).
2. The difference affects the amino acid sequence of the protein by replacing glutamic acid (Glu) with valine (Val).
Explanation:
In sickle cell anemia, a change in the DNA nucleotide sequence is observed, where adenine is substituted by thymine, whose expression is the change in the amino acid sequence of globine β, incorporating valine instead of glutamic acid. This represents a molecular mutation - point mutation - by subtitution, which corresponds to missense mutation.
<u>Normal hemoglobin protein in a RBC</u>
DNA CTG ACT CCT GAG GAG AAG TCT
Amino acids Leu Thr Pro Glu Glu Lys Ser
<u>Sickle cell hemoglobin protein in a RBC</u>
DNA CTG ACT CCT <em>GTG</em> GAG AAG TCT
Amino acids Leu Thr Pro <em>Val</em> Glu Lys Ser
When GAG is transcribed to mRNA, the CUC codon is obtained, which codes for glutamic acid. Thymine substitution causes the DNA sequence to change to GTG, which is transcribed as CAC, the codon that encodes the amino acid valine. The <u>change from glutamic acid to valine in β-globin causes an altered hemoglobin, giving the abnormal erythrocytes observed in sickle cell disease</u>.
Answer: a line connecting her mother and father, a colored circle representing Jenna, and two empty circles representing her sisters
Explanation: Jenna's red hair can be determined by incomplete dominance.
Incomplete dominance is a condition where neither of the alleles responsible for a trait is dominant.
In incomplete dominance, one allele for a specific trait is not completely expressed over its paired allele. So, if an organism is heterozygous for a trait, it shows a third phenotype.
